From my short story, YOU will learn respect to the World of Design... Me and MORE.
Years Back... At the end of the 80's & Beginning of 90's
Early times of my career.
Having full faith and confidence of myself and my abilities, in every way possible and not only designs.
I sold Textile Designs to a factory, Later the designs become fabrics
A year after, or so.. I had an interview with a manager of a company in Israel, who wished to represent my work in an important professional exhibitions outside Israel, He was the owner of a big company of fabrics in Israel meant for Interior. To the interview, I brought my portfolio that contained designs and also some of the fabrics designed by myself, to show the quality of my work. He liked my work. and was interested I make him exactly the same design like I already had made and sold to a factory, he personally knew and worked with. I said I would not design the same design as I had already sold it... since the moment I sold the design.. I can't sell the same work to you. A matter of trust and integrity in work relationships and also copyrights.. He smiled knowing he could not convince me selling twice the same design or idea. From that day I started to work .. design for him his company too.

I would like to add... It is much easier to create one's his or , her own ideas than to copy or duplicate the ideas of the other.
The more I create.. the more Ideas I get from my own work.
Thanks for visiting
Cheers to integrity in the world of design and life itself.
